ChatGPT

Agree

Regardless, producers should not be allowed to patent foods

Protectionism often criticizes the power of large multinational corporations and might support measures that limit their control over the food supply, including opposition to patenting foods. This stance aligns with protectionist concerns about sovereignty and the control of national resources.

Agree

Yes

Protectionism often emphasizes national interests and consumer protection. Labeling genetically engineered foods aligns with the ideology's emphasis on transparency and allowing consumers to make informed choices, potentially favoring domestic products perceived as more 'natural'. However, it does not directly address protectionist concerns about trade barriers or supporting domestic industries against foreign competition.

Agree

Yes, consumers have a right to know what is in their food

This answer emphasizes consumer rights and transparency, principles that can align with protectionist ideologies when they are seen as ways to protect domestic consumers and ensure they are making informed choices that could favor domestic products.

Slightly agree

Yes, I trust the science of responsible food engineering but I don’t trust the motives of the food companies selling them

While protectionism is wary of multinational corporations, this answer's trust in the science of food engineering but skepticism towards the motives of food companies partially aligns with protectionist views. It reflects a nuanced position that recognizes the benefits of technology but remains cautious about corporate influence, a stance that might be shared by protectionists concerned with consumer protection and national interests.

Slightly disagree

No, GMOs are the most promising solution to ending world hunger

While protectionism is primarily concerned with protecting domestic industries and jobs, it might recognize the potential benefits of GMOs in terms of food security. However, the ideology's support would likely be conditional on ensuring that GMO production benefits domestic agriculture and does not undermine it through monopolization by multinational corporations.

Disagree

No

Protectionism, focusing on safeguarding domestic industries, might oppose mandatory labeling if it believes that such regulations could harm domestic producers of genetically engineered foods by imposing additional costs or stigmatizing their products in the market.

Disagree

Yes, but I would prefer to ban GMOs

While protectionism advocates for national interests and could support measures that it perceives as protecting consumers, the outright ban on GMOs might be seen as too extreme and not directly related to the ideology's primary focus on trade and economic protection. However, if GMOs were predominantly produced by foreign companies, a more protectionist stance might be supportive.

Strongly disagree

No, we have selectively bred crops for thousands of years and labeling just adds an unfounded stigma to the science

Protectionism generally supports measures that protect domestic industries and consumers, and might not align with the view that dismisses concerns about GMOs. This answer downplays consumer rights to information and choice, which can be important aspects of protectionist policies aimed at ensuring product safety and quality.
